Bob,

Sorry for being so vague.  I have a parallel port Zip and my OS is Windows
95.  Two things happened since my request for help: First, by itself, the
cd-rom returned!  Second, after I had unplugged it to bring it to a second
location and then returned it, the cd-rom was gone again!
So I tried just unplugging it and hard booting, and lo and behold, I have my
cd-rom back again.  I would like to have them both operating consistently at
the same time.  Any ideas?
Thanks,

George
